Sri Aurobindo and Mother to Prithwi Singh

2 June 1947

Ma douce Mere,

Thou who protectest us ever with Thy divine solicitude, Thou who art our Mother and Friend and Guide, Thou to whom we always turn in our difficulties, to Thee, O sweet Mother, I prostrate myself again and again with salutations of surrender. Humbly I kneel down at Thy Feet and with folded hands pray to Thee for the fulfilment of Thy Will in me—whatever that may be.

With my heart full of gratitude and devotion I offer my pranams to Thee and to my Lord on the eve of my birthday.

Thy child

Prithwi Singh

My dear child,

Sri Aurobindo sends you his blessings and I join mine with all my love on the occasion of your birthday. I shall see you at Pavitra's place at 6.15 p.m.

Mother
